And a very happy 233rd birthday to the nation that gave the four of us birth, the United States of America, whose Declaration of Independence was signed on this date in 1776. What was once said about our navy, I like to paraphrase about the whole country: ours is a nation with a system of government designed by geniuses to be run by C students. Thanks in most heartfelt profusion to all those who have given of themselves, from their smallest bit of effort to their very lives, to make and keep this nation strong and free...and those who are doing so even at this moment, far from our shores—most especially those in our country's uniform.
